When sIFR replaces my node titles, international characters seem to go missing. I guess these characters are not included in akbar.swf, right?

Could you provide an alternate .swf with these characters for those of us who don't have a Flash Editor able to work with sIFR?

You can create your swf, please go through the readmefile or sIFR documentation. Creating a swf fro each language is very hard, if I create all languages in one swf the file size will be increased which inturn effects page loading. Looking for other alternatives.

How did i solve it? (latin characters)
In a simple way:
1.- browse http://www.fontsmack.com/
2.- Customize text with desired characters and update
3.- Look for the fonts presenting these characters
4.- Go to view font detais menu
5.- Copy the link addres of the "Full latin character set" option
6.- Go to your server in "/var/www/themes/fancy/sifr#" directory and do next commands replacing what you are interested in

wget http://www.fontsmack.com/fonts/aardvarkbold/AardvarkBold_fulllatin.swf
cp akbar.swf BAKakbar.swf
cp AardvarkBold_fulllatin.swf akbar.swf

and refresh your web to see how looks like.

I hope to help.
